Quality, exceptional service, and an unparalleled atmosphere have made Eddie Merlot's one of America's great steak houses over the past 20 years. Eddie Merlot' s is an homage to the man and his love of a great steak, a great glass of wine, and a good story.
We pride ourselves on our Prime Aged Beef and scratch kitchen. Our chef selects each steak for the optimum proportion of marbling and texture before hand-cutting and seasoning the steaks to your specifications. From sauces to desserts, we develop recipes to create a truly unique experience for our guests. And, while you enjoy your meal, you'll be treated to the one-of-a-kind service we call the "W.O.W. Factor."

We welcome you to Eddie Merlot's—we want you, our guest, to have nothing but the best, which is why we go to such lengths to serve you the exceptional prime-aged steaks upon which our restaurant has built its reputation.

    There’s no doubt when you have six people dining together. It can be difficult to carry on a conversation. I will have to admit that it is quite noisy in the dining room at EM. However, the food is always good as is the service. Our group has dined there in mid December for the past 10 years… We’re not about to stop the tradition now.

    Great dining experience and meal. Restaurant was busy, but server was able to check on us frequently. Feels like overall service is back to prior high standards.

    Dined at Eddie Merlot’s restaurant for our wedding anniversary. Everything was perfect. Seated immediately (had reservation), hostess staff were friendly. The meal experience was first class…our server was experienced, and his attentiveness to us was exceptional. Food, drinks and desert was excellent. We always go back for these reasons.

    Fun ladies’ Holiday lunch. The Hostess always takes good care of me, as did our server, Kraig. Food was great, so was the company. (Food: Steak Diane Prix Fixe, crab bisque, yummy garlic mashed, steak salad, and desserts! )
